Public - 18 hole - cost: $25 - $25

1010 Palm Canyon Drive, Borrego Springs, CA 92004

Tel: (760) 767-5373 

 

Designed by unknown. This par-3 course is part of a mobile home residential community. The longest hole is 170 yards, and there is water on one hole. The greens are generous in size. With homes lining the course, semi-accurate iron play is a must. The course is closed to the public Tuesday and Thursday morning until noon, but open for resident golfers. From San Diego (about 90 miles northeast to the course): Take I-8 east to Highway 67, go north to Highway 78 and go east. In Santa Ysabel, turn left onto Highway 79. Turn right on to S-2, then left onto S-22.
